Jim Kilpatrick & Pearl at Worlds

08-08-2017 - World Pipe Band Championships 2017

The World Pipe Band Championships will return to its heartland, in Glasgow on the 11th and 12th August 2017. Expect exciting competition across all Grades, Pearl will be present at the Glasgow Green with a marquee near the grade 2 arena together with Jim Kilpatrick.

Jim Kilpatrick will join us in our marquee and he will show the Medalist snare drums, still the lightest Pipe Band Snare Drum in the world. The Medalist is available in existing premium finishes as Scarlet Fade, Purple Sparkle Burst and Ultra Blue Fade and Crystal Rain. Next to those standard available finishes, there are 30 other premium finishes to choose from. A selection of those colours will be shown.

The best combination with the Medalilst Drum is a Pearl CX Airframe Pipe Band carrier, it is the lightest combination ever!

Did you know that this snare drum meets superior specifications to deliver the ultimate reliability in the field under all circumstances? Both Glasgow Police Pipe Band with David Henderson and the Bleary and Distric Pipe Band with Eric Ward are playing the new Championship “Medalist” Snare Drum.

We’d like to welcome you and see us and Jim at our stand at the Worlds on 11 & 12th August 2017 !
